The Supreme Martial King Shocking All Realms Chapter 3141 - 3136: Yue Mei’s Sacrifice_1
Previously on The Supreme Martial King Shocking All Realms...
"What exactly is Senior Brother Fu implying..." several Boundaryless cultivators inquired.
Standing with his hands clasped behind his back, Fu Shenghan explained: "As a disciple sent from the Divine Night Sect, if we can convince Yang Chen to remain, he might be the key to sustaining our Golden Element Sect for a while longer. However, retaining him without a compelling reason will be difficult. While you must treat Master Yang with the utmost hospitality during his stay, that alone is insufficient. We should have Yue Mei attend to Master Yang. She has mastered the Virgin Reincarnation Skill. By offering her virginity to a Boundaryless cultivator, she can significantly aid them in perceiving the laws of the Dao. I believe Master Yang will find such an offer difficult to resist."
"Senior Brother Fu intends to use Yue Mei to tether this man? It is truly a clever plan. Yet, Yue Mei is incredibly prideful and has never held anyone in high regard. To ask her to give herself to this person..."
Fu Shenghan replied with a cold tone: "Yue Mei is no longer a child; she understands the nature of worldly relations. There is no requirement for emotion in a transaction based on mutual benefit. Yang Chen hails from the Divine Night Sect and has attained Boundaryless Cultivation at such a young age; he is a suitable partner for her. Besides, the Golden Element Sect faces a crisis of life and death, so she must understand her duty. Let her manage the situation herself. Once the deed is done, we can inform her that the Skyfire Male Lion has reached the Heaven-separated Realm. At that point, her reputation would make it too shameful for her to leave him even if she wished to. These disciples from major Sects always value their prestige above all else."
"It seems this is our only course of action. We shall relay this plan to Yue Mei..."
After their discussion, the cultivators went their separate ways.
Yang Chen took up temporary residence within the Golden Element Sect, oblivious to the schemes of these Boundaryless cultivators, though he knew the burden of anxiety rested on their shoulders rather than his.
Within two days, a woman arrived at his dwelling amidst the High Mountains and Running Waters.
She possessed a delicate and striking countenance, a rare jewel of beauty. Her cultivation had reached the peak of the Mahayana Stage, marking her as a top-tier beauty within this entire interface.
"Who are you, and what is your business here?" Yang Chen asked, feeling puzzled.
"I am Yue Mei, the foremost female cultivator of Jiang Wenxing. Having heard of Master Yang’s arrival, I wished to pay my respects. May I learn more about you?" she spoke in a soft, gentle voice.
Yang Chen’s brow furrowed. He couldn't fathom what these people were planning by sending Jiang Wenxing’s top female cultivator to his door.
Not wishing to be rude, he brushed his sleeves and said, "Enter."
The woman stepped inside quickly, her cheeks flushed a vibrant red like a ripened apple, clearly betraying her nervousness. Standing so close to Yang Chen, her bashfulness only enhanced her enchanting allure.
Still confused by her presence, Yang Chen asked: "What brings Miss Yue Mei here today?"
Yue Mei’s lips trembled slightly. After a moment of hesitation, she bit her lip and said: "Master Yang, your arrival to assist Jiang Wenxing in this time of peril is a great honor for us. I have no other way to show my gratitude. Because I have practiced the Virgin Reincarnation Skill, I can join with a senior to assist his comprehension of the law. My only wish is to serve as a concubine under Master Yang..." Having finished her plea, she bowed deeply toward him.
Biting her lip, she felt confident that her beauty and cultivation were unmatched in this interface. Though she was uncertain of the standards within the Universe Starry Sky, she was currently humbling herself to serve as a mere concubine, and she found it hard to believe he would turn her away.
Her willingness to lower herself was calculated; Yang Chen was young, possessed Boundaryless Cultivation, and was a core member of the Divine Night Sect. These attributes made him a man worth serving.
Upon hearing her words, Yang Chen finally grasped the situation.
He stood stunned for a moment before saying with a sigh, "Miss Yue Mei, please refrain from mentioning the matter of being a concubine again. I am already a married man. Furthermore, aiding Jiang Wenxing is my responsibility; it requires no such repayment. Go back and inform Fu Shenghan that whatever crisis Jiang Wenxing faces, I have already committed to helping. There is no need for deception. If this continues, you will truly leave me no choice but to depart."
Yue Mei bit her lip harder, shocked that Yang Chen remained entirely unmoved by her proposal.
She had steeled herself for many things, but not such a blunt rejection. Her eyes grew misty as she gazed at him, silently pleading for a shred of compassion.
Yang Chen was not entirely heartless, but with Zhang Xuelian in his thoughts, he simply gave a resigned wave of his sleeve.
Left with no choice, Yue Mei departed.
Fu Shenghan was stunned by the failure of the mission, never imagining Yang Chen would be immune to such a temptation.
He considered other ways to bind Yang Chen to their cause, but remembering the warning, he felt a surge of dread.
If Yang Chen left in a fit of rage, what would become of them?
Fu Shenghan had no choice but to lead several others to meet Yang Chen personally once more.
Sensing their approach, Yang Chen did not bar their path and allowed them to draw near.
"Senior Brother Fu, are you ready to speak plainly now?" Yang Chen asked with a calm expression.
A restless Fu Shenghan replied: "Master Yang, it wasn't that we wished to deceive you, but we feared you might abandon us if you knew the full truth."
Yang Chen realized Fu Shenghan had intended to trap him into a commitment first.
He gave a cold sneer: "Daoist Fu, I have shown respect by calling you Senior Brother Fu. If you continue to speak in circles and play these pointless games, do not blame me if I lose my patience."
Seeing Yang Chen’s growing irritation, Fu Shenghan trembled with fear, realizing he had vastly underestimated the young man.
In his alarm, he immediately changed his tone: "Master Yang, please, do not be angry. The reality is this: I originally told the Divine Night Sect that the strongest Demonic Beast here was the Skyfire Male Lion, whose power was equal to mine at the Half-step Heavenly Leaving Realm. However, in our clashes, I was no match for it. Given its command over ancient beast powers, I sought help from the Sect. But now, without warning, the Skyfire Male Lion has broken through to the Heavenly Leaving Realm. I truly did not see this coming."
"The situation has spiraled beyond my control; the beast has reached the Heavenly Leaving Realm, and it will be two months before more reinforcements from the Divine Night Sect arrive. The Skyfire Male Lion is closing in, and my Golden Element Sect may not survive that long. I can only beg Master Yang to help us hold the line for a few more days."
As he finished, the group bowed with deep respect, their eyes filled with a desperate sincerity, praying for his agreement.
Yang Chen had suspected they were hiding a grave problem, but he hadn't anticipated a Demonic Beast at the Heavenly Leaving Realm appearing.
He let out a laugh and shook his head, unwilling to waste any more time in idle talk.
"There is no need for further words. Simply lead me to this Skyfire Male Lion," Yang Chen said coolly.
